Cassandra Salvatore~•~I hesitated but Matteo's sharp gaze settled on me, so I had no choice but to obey.I lifted the shirt over my head, letting it fall to the ground beside my leg. The fact that I didn't wince while doing that showed I had recovered but the two men in front of me were stubborn and would rather have things their way.I always had to remind myself that I was the one that submitted to them. Two pairs of eyes scrutinized me, making me feel self-conscious in my sports bra and panties. Throughout the weeks I'd been staying here, they had seen me naked a lot, but it was usually when they were putting me in a bath or helping me wash my body."I have a rule."My eyes snapped to Matteo's at his words. Even Rowan looked at him curiously. "W-what rule?" I stuttered out."Whenever you're home with us, I'd prefer if you don't have underwear on."I blushed slightly when he called his house, home. It felt that way, but I still had to take care of my siblings. Rowan and Matteo ha
Cassandra Salvatore~•~Rowan and Matteo had revealed that the main reason they didn't let me out was so I wouldn't run into my father accidentally.They didn't even want me to set my eyes on him before he was finally in prison as they didn't want a repeat of what happened.They cared about me a little too much but I liked it.I didn't complain about being at home anymore because I knew they were only doing it for my good. Rather, I found new ways to occupy myself. I gave myself a tour of the house and I found a library. I was shocked Jules didn't sniff it out on her stay here.I read a few books and I started some light workouts in their gym. I also started swimming too.My men promised that I'd stay for one last week and I'd be able to return to work. Today was Friday and instead of working, they went to court.They had a very good lawyer and we're confident that they would win the case. Jules even went as a witness but I didn't. While they didn't want me to see Daniel Salvatore, I a
Cassandra Salvatore~•~I opened and closed my mouth, not knowing what to say, but I felt a light spank on my ass that had me yelping.I turned around to look at Rowan. "He told you to do something. Why are you still here?"With my cheeks still red, I climbed out of the pool. I could feel Rowan staring at my ass as I walked but I managed to keep my eyes in front as I approached the other Valentino twin.As soon as I neared him, he took my hand and pulled me to his lap.I turned around, straddling him properly and the first thing he did was hold my chin, bringing my face down for a kiss.His tongue swiped at my bottom lip and I opened my lips. His hot tongue found mine immediately as they clashed. He sucked on my tongue and bit my lip gently before he pulled away."Why are you suddenly shy?""I've never — I haven't —""You haven't ridden a dick before?"I nodded. "Yes, sir." I didn't want to fuck up nor did I want to do anything that would displease them."Well, I'm glad to be your fi
Cassandra Salvatore~•~Jules decided to throw a housewarming party on the night of my arrival. As Matteo had said, they had kept me in their home all weekend. We didn't get to go outside. We spent the whole weekend fooling around in the basement and I had to admit that I would miss living with them.They had offered to drop me home but I told them I was going to walk instead. Then, they offered to walk with me because they wanted to be sure nothing happened to me.When I reached the house, I was surprised to see that the house had been furnished. It looked like a real home. I couldn't be more grateful for having people like Matteo and Rowan in my life.I wondered how much they spent on the house. When Rowan was showing us around, it had been empty. Now, it felt like a place where people had been living for years. They bought all kinds of furniture and equipment a person could think of.My siblings were happy to see me and we talked all evening, only separating when Jules announced t
Cassandra Salvatore~•~I forgot to set an alarm. I yawned as my eyes opened, taking a good look around the room.My siblings and Jules had left the biggest room for me because Rowan and Matteo bought the house in my name and they said it was only because of me they had the opportunity to live in a house like this one.Well, Jules had that opportunity because her parents were literal billionaires.Another yawn escaped my lips as I noticed how bright it was. It was supposed to be dark since I usually woke up around six o'clock in the morning.Since the room had already been set up, I turned to the side to check the time. The movement made my head hurt and my eyes bulged when I saw that it was nine-thirty already. Fuck!I stood up with immediacy, groaning at the fast movement. My head was pounding. Who the fuck told me it would be a good idea to drink last night?Then again, I'd been so caught up in chilling with my friends that I forgot I had work this morning.I picked up my phone an
Matteo Valentino~•~Her jaw fell open like she couldn't believe I would punish her, but I was serious about it.When I came to the office and didn't see her inside already, my brain was immediately transported to the last time she said she wouldn't be coming in.My first thought was that something bad had happened to her. When I called her phone and she didn't pick up, I got more worried.I told Rowan about it and he told me that she was probably going to be late because of the party they had last night. That was when I found out they threw a party. He showed me Jules' story because I barely used Instagram and I saw a few clips of Cassandra, who was already slightly drunk.Thanking him for the information, I left his office and went back to mine. Then, I called Lauretta and she confirmed that Cass was alive and well, just slightly hungover."You're right," I told Cassie. "I was very worried at first. Then, I saw what you had been up to and I was downright disappointed."I saw her swa
Rowan Valentino~•~"I think someone said something to our girl." Matteo burst inside my office without knocking.It was the end of the work day for employees but George and I still had some stuff to work on.I glared at my brother at his intrusion. He was always mad whenever I did the same to him but then, his words registered in my head. "What?""Hi, George." He acknowledged him before sitting on the chair across from me. George was like a best friend to me and knew everything about my life as well as Cassandra's so I didn't mind that he was in the room."Explain." "I sent her to get me coffee. When she came back, she was looking all gloomy like she was hurt or something. Not physically though." He clarified when he saw that I was about to ask a question, making me relax a bit. "I asked her about it and she dismissed me, but I don't want to push it.""Well, people have been talking," George said, his eyes focused on his computer.Both Matteo and I turned to face him. "What do you m
Cassandra Salvatore~•~My alarm rang and I stopped it immediately. I had been awake for hours because I couldn't sleep well.I didn't have the will to leave my bed nor did I want to go to work.Don't get me wrong, I loved my job. I really did but the week had consisted of other employees talking behind my back, and for the ones who were brave enough, they talked when I was present.It was maddening.When I came home on Monday, I'd told Jules all about it and she had told me to ignore them. If only it was that easy.I wished I was able to block out their words. I wish I didn't take every little comment to heart."Is this another day where I have to drag you out of bed so you won't make your boss mad by going late to work?"I groaned when I heard Jules' voice and pulled the comforter over my head. Jules was not a morning person but there she was, waking up early to make sure I got out of bed early."I will eventually," I told her and it was the truth. I had to make breakfast for my sib
Cassandra Salvatore~•~I took a deep breath as I heard the announcer's voice, calling out for the models.I was nervous as fuck, but it had nothing to do with the fact that I was about to walk on the runway. It was not the first time I was doing it. However, it was the first time I was doing so in a foreign country with news only I knew about.I was in Rome and I'd only arrived here two nights ago which meant I hadn't gotten the time to tour the city. Besides, I was terrible at their local language and I could get lost easily.I stood in place as the models left one after the other.My hand was shaking but I willed myself to be strong. I saw the last girl leave and I walked closer to the curtains. As soon as she came back, I took one last deep breath and started my strut.The applause was instant and I was certain it came from my family who were seated in the front row.Keeping my poker face on and careful not to break into a smile, I walked down the aisle, stopping at the edge to st
Cassandra Salvatore~•~Matteo gave us an unimpressed look. "Really guys? You're fucking in a fucking storage closet?""We didn't fuck." Rowan spat at his brother, glaring at him. "Cassandra was horny and whiny and I did something about it.""Whatever the fuck you were doing, you didn't think to lock the door? What if Mom opened it instead?"I blushed in embarrassment, at the same time, grateful that it was Matteo that opened the door and not someone else. It would have been much more humiliating.Rowan rolled his eyes, not bothered. "We were on our way out anyway."He shouldered past his twin and as I was about to leave as well, Matteo held me back. "I know my brother thinks with his dick sometimes, but you ought to be responsible."I smiled sheepishly. "I was tipsy.""Course you were." He sighed, closed the door, and put his arm around my waist as he led me away from there. "We're back on the shore and I had to look for you guys everywhere."I said goodbye to Tash and her friends be
Cassandra Salvatore~•~The party was a blast. It wasn't the usual style of throwing parties but I was certain Jules would have loved it here. I made a mental note to introduce the birthday girl to her soon.Tash had been ecstatic that she could finally consume alcohol without faking her age.Well, she did not tell her parents that. They thought she was just happy to be able to consume alcohol.Her mother still appraised me with watchful eyes, but I tried not to let it get to me. I'd just have to convince her I'm not the gold digger she thought I was.I was interested in one of her sons before I found out they were filthy rich.Under the constant glare of their mother, I could not go through the party sober.I was drunk and horny and it amused Rowan.Matteo was off somewhere doing God knows what while I sat down on a couch with the older twin — I didn't even know where we were.For the umpteenth time, my hand tried to sneak down his boxers, but he caught it before I could go further.
Cassandra Salvatore~•~My eyes went wide as the older couple fixed their gaze on me.However, I was relieved when Rowan concurred. "They've always been like that. You'd like her university friends more." I didn't know what to say so I just kept mute as Matteo dragged me to his side, putting his arm around my shoulder. "Mom, Dad, this is Cassandra. Cassie, these are our parents."The woman had bright blonde hair which none of them seemed to inherit. They only took her blue eyes. The man's eyes were as dark as his hair. Both pairs of eyes were settled on me. I plastered a smile on my face. "It's nice to meet you both. Your son has talked a lot about you." I was lying. Matteo and Rowan barely mentioned their parents. They avoided it for as long as possible.They weren't looking forward to introducing me to their parents because of how intense they could be but we couldn't escape it forever, especially as their mom kept demanding to see me."Cassandra Salvatore?" She asked and I nodded
Cassandra Salvatore~•~I'd never been in a sophisticated place like this in my life. I didn't know how the decorators managed to make it sophisticated yet casual.Apart from the times they bought me expensive gifts, I often forgot how rich these men were. This party was a huge wake-up reminder. It was crazy how much money they had.What was crazier was the fact that funding this party wouldn't dent anyone's pocket.Rowan had revealed to me that Tasha had made everyone pitch in to celebrate her party.Since she was the youngest and the baby of the family, she received a monthly stipend from all three of her brothers, as well as her parents. She hadn't started working yet but she was a millionaire already!However, she didn't spend a dime of her money on this party. She knew how to bend her brothers to her will.There were a lot of high-class people at the party, even some celebrity singers. Matteo and Rowan were used to this kind of environment but I was like a wide-eyed novice.I had
Matteo Valentino~•~"How would this work anyway?" Cassandra asked, stepping into the vehicle.She looked absolutely breathtaking with a red satin dress wrapped around her body and pearls hanging down her ears. She looked delectable.I took the present in her hand and placed it beside me before placing a kiss on the corner of her red-painted lips."Honey, you'll get married to us one day. You'll have to get used to things like this." Rowan was seated opposite me and Cassandra sat beside me, her thighs touching mine. The slit on her dress was high. I just hoped my mom wouldn't have anything to say about it."That's true."I was so glad she wasn't freaking out at the idea of marriage.When I first saw Cassandra, I didn't know I would be thinking of marriage, but after spending a few weeks with her, I knew she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.I didn't know how she would take it though. Being in a relationship with two men was one thing. It was fun. It was thrilling.
Cassandra Salvatore~•~Once again, my face had been plastered all over the internet.And so was Rafael's face when the police finally took him. The difference was that his face was bloody, almost unrecognizable. That could only be Matteo's work.Rowan had taken me to my house because he knew how worried Jules had been."Did he do anything else to you?""Why does it matter?" I sighed, not wanting to recollect the events of the past twenty-four hours. I was grateful I didn't spend more time there and it was all because of my brave men."Because the police would want to know. The more things he does, the more time he spends in jail." He explained slowly, taking care not to come across as rude. "Well, he assaulted me. He cornered me in the ladies' room and hit my head." There was a bandage on the place Rafael hit. He was sensible enough to take care of the wound, knowing it could be fatal if left unattended. "I fell unconscious. The next time I woke up, I was tied up. He tried to kiss m
Matteo Valentino~•~I scrunched up my face as Damon pulled over at a small house. It was a house that looked like it had been abandoned and when I saw the brand of the car the police had described to me, I knew Cassie was finally going to be safe."He's sloppy." My brother commented. "Probably because it's a one-man job.""It's a good thing he is. Makes it easier to catch him."I sent off a text to the police, telling them to start coming to the address. I needed a few moments of having Rafael to myself before handing him to the police.I needed to make it clear to him that he had no right or audacity to challenge me ever.As we got down from the car, Rowan walked toward us. "So what exactly is the plan?""No plan. We walk in there. We get Cassie and we leave." Rowan stared at me blankly. "And maybe, rough him up a little.""Now, you're talking." Together, we approached the door of the house carefully. We just assumed it would be a one-man job. I was hoping we were right.The door l
Cassandra Salvatore~•~I didn't get to step a foot outside before Rafael's hand wrapped around my waist in a firm grip and pulled me against his chest.He closed the door and locked it.I tried to hit him again but he quickly held my hand and turned me around, backing me up against the wall."Are you fucking stupid?" He roared out, face full of anger."Fuck you." I spat out, trying to escape from his grip but he was too damn strong.Soon enough, he relaxed his hold on me but I felt the cold metal on my head, daring me to make a move.I froze, my chest rising and falling at a fast pace. His eyes dropped to them and he licked his lips. I felt too exposed. He could see the swell of my breasts in my bra.Why the fuck did he even strip me out of my clothes?I didn't care if I was going to run out of here naked. All I knew was that I had to run."You look hot when you are feisty." Before I could process what was happening. Rafael had his lips on mine. I couldn't move.He bit my lip harshl
